There has been q p%erceptible falling

must collect full fare, five cents, from

two and four years, mounted the seats
and each, on It's knees, was o peer

him a five cent piece.

"Fiye cents for each OF the children.

The lady looked up and read the
printed notice 10 the conductor 10 col.
lect full fare from all except children in

Tuesday, March J, 1887.

Mrs. Z. p. w. PACKARD has visited
Montana during the session OF our leg
islsture to procure for the married
women Of Montana the boon Of person
al emancipation, or rather the restora-
ton Of her legal personal existence,
which by the barbarous usage Of com.
mon law is extinguished on marriage.
Few persons have ever realized the
full significance and the possible con-
sequences Of the application of the old
common law on this subject. But
Mrs Packard is living witness and
example of what bigotry and tyranny
car do under the name ofthat common
law, so much Wanted for its prorec.
ton Of personal rights. For years she
was immured in q lunatic asylum,
and the law confessed itself powerless
torhelp her unless she would apply for
q divorce, TO which alternative she
was conscient ously opposed. The the
DRY Of the common law is that husband
and wi:esre Jne, but the poor wife is
net half of that one; she is nothing and
the husban lie everything in the con.
sideration Of that common law. She
asks that the Legislature Of Montana
shall by statute wipe out this feature
Of the common law and enact that
woman shall retain the same legal ex-
istence and legal personality after
marriage as before. She il not advo.
eating for married women the right To
vote or hold office, but merely the rec
ignition Of her personal existence and
individual rights after marriage, 20
that her husband cannot imprison her
in u lunatic asylum on a false charge
aud keep her there at his pleasure be.
yond the reach ofthe remedy Of habea-
corpus, aud deprive her of all her per.
soual property. ever 10 her wardrobe,
and the presence or any share in the
custody Of the children she has borne.
Every vestige Of this barbarOu., inhu-
man old common law doctrine OF the
annibilallon OF married women ought
TO be wiped out. TO most OF our readers
il will be u revelation that any such
theoretical legal monstrosity ever eX-
listed in Montana, and yet IL came IN
by the adoption Of the common law at
the first session of u Legislature

A chorister Of country church lately
made a sad mistake in the choice of a
tune, there being a long slur in it,
which came directly upon an unfortu-
nate word, which produced o startling
effect, namely:
with reverence let the saints appear,
And bow-wow-wow before the Lord"
The clergyman's little wisset pup,
happening to catch the note, sung out
his treble pipe, started the squire's old
Towser's full bass, and in an instant
the whole posse of dogs set up such a
chorus that Handel's hailstorm would
have dwindled into mustard-s seed in

A GREAT GEORGIA FRUIT FARM.


EntDuINktIuf0t ~ NftfpftsIn u9EH
deners and ia mers.
Twenty wears ago nearly everybody
in Macon and Houston counties re-
garded Mr.. s. IL. Rumph as crank up
on the fruit question.
They argued that there was no de-
mand for fruits and trees grown in the
South, that the Yankee had already q
monopoly upon that business. Also
that but few varieties could be grown
here; that the growing Of apples and
r~aspberries, especially, was an exploded
idea, and that nobody but q northern
man could successfully conduct q nur-
sery.
These and a thousand other objec-
tions were urged by every one, and it
was with great difficulty that Mr..
Rumph, then quite a young man, and
with but limited means, could get o
piece of land upon which to lay the
foundation for an immense business,
and out Of which he is to-day making Q
fortune. Nothing daunted, however,
he established his fruit farm and nur
sery, known to-day in every State and
market in the United States.
He gets the first red raspberries
every season into Jacksonville, Savan-
nah, New York and Boston, and he re-
Allies fully 80 cent per quart for the
yield from a five. acre patch.
He has propagsted q variety Of peach
believed TO be the finest in every par
ticular grown in the South, if not in
America, which he christened "El-
berta," in honor Of her who, in his
young manhood, plighted her love and
fate with his, and r~ejoices with him in
prosperity and sympathizes in adversely,
as only q devoted and loving wife can
do.
He has a large number of Elbertas,
and last season the crop paid him an
average Of ii cents per peach in New
York and Boston. He ships car loads
of peaches of other varieties every sea-
son that pay satisfactory prices, and he
yearly increases his acreage. which al
ready numbers several hundred.
Apples are grown to perfection, and
every week in the year he fills orders
for this delightful fruit, sweetened by
Georgia suns and on Georgia lands.
But it is said that his nursery is the
biggest thing in the South. Suffice il
TO say, at present, last week he sold
5000 trees, to he shipped to different
States the coming fall.
His home is one Of the loveliest in
the country, surrounded by fruits and
flowers Of every variety aud species, and
is visited annually by hundreds of tav-
ellers and excursions SITS who pass this
way aud can stop off for q period

He called for a piece of lemon pie,
and when it was brought 10 him said:
SIS this lemon pie, Mrs. Sidney?"
